headset question
Quote | Reply
Ok, so I got my new fork (threadless, 1 inch carbon with carbon steerer), now I need to get the headset for it. What's the difference between a headset and an Aheadset?

If you can afford it get a Chris King.



Let me suggest against the Record headset...I have had bad luck with those.

Thanks but I'm looking at either the Cane Creek or the Syncros. The Syncros is on sale for 49 bucks, hard to pass up. I know the Chris King is the best, and will last a million years, but this is going on a bike with 105 components. Not really looking to put Rolls Royce parts on a Chevy bike. But thanks for all the info.

I'll put a vote in for the syncros. I had one for a mountain bike and it seemed almost equal in quality with the king headset.
